According to the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary’s account of the incident, Pike followed the victim from Tim Hortons on Harvey Road and grabbed her.

The teen dialed 911 multiple times during the sexual assault, resulting in a recording of the incident. A second sexual assault was reportedly captured by surveillance cameras outside The Rooms.

Pike — who will be transferred to Springhill institution — has two previous convictions for sexual assault and was on probation at the time.

The long-term offender designation will be for the maximum time — 10 years. It means when Pike is released from jail, he will be under strict conditions and be subject to close supervision and will be monitored in the community.

Pike, who has been diagnosed with mild retardation and has cognitive issues, will also participate in programming for sexual offenders, alcohol abuse and anger management. His name will be listed on the national sex offenders registry for the rest if his life.

The Crown had sought a dangerous offender designation, but agreed to the long-term offender designation after months of discussions with Edwards.

The girl called 911 during an active sexual assault and the perp was able to have a second go? Why didn't every cop in the city drop what they were going and go there. Phones have GPS signals available for 911.
We see stories all of the time about police making small marijuana busts. Nice to see that they put their own headlines ahead of the safety of a 16 year old girl.
This is disgusting.

She was essentially in the cop shop parking lot.
Have you ever called 911? I have, first thing you get is a recording asking if you need police, fire or an ambulance..........then a real person comes on the line.
